The centrist camp, also known as the moderate camp or moderate groups,[1] is Hong Kong's moderate political alignment.

The centrist camp represents a moderate view between the pro-Beijing and pro-democracy camps. However, depending on the political party, it may lean closer to either.

Although they are not actively pro-government at the level of the pro-Beijing camp, the centrist camp interacts with the mainland Chinese government. For example, Ronny Tong on the Path of Democracy entered the Executive Council of Hong Kong, Chow Yick Hay (周奕希) on the Third Side is a Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference member based on Zhaoqing[2] and vice-chairman of the Kwai Tsing District Council.[3] This is in contrast to the pro-democracy camp, which doesn't interact with the mainland government at all.
